To replace the starter motor on a Toyota Land Cruiser 90, start by disconnecting the battery. Then, access the starter motor, unscrew the connector with the nuts securing it and the cable.

Once the starter motor is removed, check it, open it up, and ensure the gears are well lubricated or greased (the video shows it being disassembled, serviced, greased, and properly lubricated). Proceed with the replacement by taking the new starter motor, positioning it in place of the old one, re-tightening the bolts that hold it in place, reconnecting the connector with the cable, reconnecting the battery, and verifying the correct operation of the new starter motor.

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a MG ZS?

On the instrument cluster of the MG ZS, the tire pressure light that appears can be reset by inflating the tires to the correct pressure: this value will be indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tires have been properly inflated, you can turn on the instrument cluster and navigate through the menu until you find the option that indicates tire pressure: if this screen shows the new values, the light will turn off; otherwise, you will need to drive for a few miles so that the sensors can read the new values and turn off the light afterward.
